The observance of International Women’s Day was held by Nesakkaram SEEDS with its SHG members on 7th March 2018 at Valluvarkottam by-lanes. There were 1340 women who came to participate in this function. It was their day and they came in numbers to demand for their Rights, Equality and Justice. Nesakkaram recognizes these demands of women and stands with them to get them. The special invitee on this day was Dr. Dr. Raja Priya Iyyapan MD, Srinivas Priya Hospital, Perambur. She spoke about the importance of bringing up girl children with same love and concern as that of boys. The women performed many folk dances during this event such as Paraiattarm, Kummi and other folk dances. This event came to an end with silent human chain by all SHG members. - Br. Joseph Raj OFM
